this leads on to next question, where best to get nordic silver paint, my first guess would be Honda, any other decent options
other than under sam's black and decker workbench

some ebay sellers do a good match, but the only way to actually get a great match is to get it made properly. i found that halfords paint was fairly good tbh, never had a problem. the only problem with halford is that they will only list one option of the colour, where as when i got my 4th gen painted there were 3 shades of the same option.

Honda dealers don't do spray cans unfortunately. At least they never did when I worked for them.
A motor factors should be able to mix you some up and hopefully match it better using shade cards.
